We’re celebrating a major milestone on our build site in beautiful Conway, South Carolina!
The walls are up, the roof is on, and a critical element of the home is being installed: the flooring. This excitement is all thanks to an incredible partnership with a local business, Flooring Coverings International, and their profound commitment to giving back to the Horry County community.
An Investment in Affordability and Stability
We recently connected with Johnny from Flooring Coverings International right on the site, where the installation was underway. Their incredibly generous offer includes the donation of both the flooring materials and the labor for not just one, but two neighboring Habitat homes!
This remarkable contribution significantly reduces our construction costs, which directly translates into a more affordable mortgage for our qualifying homebuyers.
When asked why they chose to partner with Habitat, Johnny emphasized the company’s deep-seated belief in community service. As a relatively new local business, he shared a powerful sentiment that resonates with our core mission:
“I don’t think it’s right to just be in business and make a living off of people without trying to give back. This is a great opportunity to work with Habitat on housing and try to showcase our people and our product.”
Flooring Coverings International is known for its unique mobile showroom—bringing product samples directly to the client—and they are now applying that same dedication and quality service to our mission. Their desire to contribute to a good deed and meet the people who make this mission possible reminds us that our work is truly a community effort.
A Safe Place to Call Home
This partnership is far more than a material donation; it is an investment in the stability and future of two families. The quality flooring selection, which our partner families were excited to choose themselves, means they will have a beautiful, safe, and durable foundation upon which to build their lives.
Through the unwavering support of community allies like Flooring Coverings International, Habitat for Humanity of Horry County is able to make affordable homeownership a reality. Our families will purchase these homes with an affordable mortgage, gaining the security and equity that is foundational to thriving in our community.
We are profoundly grateful for Flooring Coverings International and partners like them, who understand that a safe, decent place to live starts with dedicated hands and generous hearts. Thank you for laying the foundation for hope for two Horry County families!
